Do you remember them?

Something that made me think today.. yea.. occasionally I do think! How you mean? You don't believe it? BELIEVE ME!! I am telling ya.. I do think.. * silent a bit * oh.. you were just kidding.. hehe.
Seems I still am short fused today. But lets continue with what I was about to tell you..

I enter my office and I see my screen flash there. It seems somebody wants to contact me eagerly. Not sure what the fuck this is gonna be about. The contactee is using a name that really doesn't ring a bell. But well, I am curious like hell, so I accept the connection.

[ 2010.04.04 22:16:22 ] SaltyandSweet > thanks

- I sit back in my chair with a confused look in my eyes - what the fuck is that all about. Is my clientelle getting EMO on me because I don't remember them? This is the point where my brain starts thinking on this subject.
I looked up my KBs and found his entry and so I recalled what happened again. I suddenly remember that I did talk to him afterwards and had some chatter. But now he seems to think that because of the fact that I killed him and had a chatter with him afterwards ( because I decided we would have ), that now he suddenly is a friend or something and can annoy me whenever he feels like it. Well.. sorry to disapoint you.. but you werent that interesting a target and I killed more then just you! Want me to remember you? Give me something worth remembering!

I mail him a short message.



And that is that! On with business now.


The ant that is different from the rest

People do the most weirdest things I think to myself ocasionally. Like this morning. I decided to head out there a bit. Check out my system, see what had been going on. Maybe even getting my mornin fix, just if..

As I am hanging out there in space. Things are quiet but I do get some readings on scan. Some noobs getting some skillbooks at the Center station prob. They always running up and down.. almost like ants draggin stuff up and forth.
Ocasionally you get this ant that is different somehow.. the ant that takes of from this path. The ant that seems to want to explore what is more out there then just draggin stuff up and forth on that path that all the other ants seem to follow.

Well, Caleb Jen'Tra seems to be such an 'ant'. I was looking at the scan results as I notice that this Cat flewn by Caleb went off the path.
I don't have to tell you that it is this that we (pirates) look for. We just love it when people decide to move away from the regular path. It's then when you see our eyes get alive. Our minds turn up that phase higher. Getting more alert and the adrenaline starting to rush as we get a fix on the location and prep our ships for battle. How far is he off.. estimating.. seems to be at 0! - DROP - ## ACTION!!

Dropping on his location, giving him the surprise of his life. Congratulations! You are the next one on my list! Pushing him with his back to the wall, killing him softly, enjoying every burst out of my auto's pounding in on his ship. Waiting for that amazing moment where he is left vulnerable in his pod.. out there for me to have him for real! And that is how we do it! You are ours now!



This dude is more then different though.. he not only decides to move off the path. But he also decides to do it again. As I am hanging out there checking out the loot I decide to leave his corpse as bait. I head out into a safe and wait as I sit back and relax the chatter over the comm channels.

Checkin out the readings on the scan I notice something interesting. This dude is back in system and in a Navitas this time. It gets more interesting as I see him land on the location of his corpse and wreck again.
Not gonna let this chance slip of course;). I drop our ship on his location again.. killing him once more there.



As if it isn't enough he decides to keep heading off the path and returns again in a Velator. He can't seem to get enough of me;) hehe.. he thinks I am lovely guys!! Well.. lets have some fun then:D.. stupid Velator melts like icecream in the hot sun under the fire of my auto's and rocket launcher though.. not fun.. I want to shoot more:(



The ant that is different from the rest..

Anti Piracy :O

I get out of the shower in the station after a long chain of patrols. As the commander of a big Hellfleet ship you can't just expect to have a lot of free time. A lot is expected from you.. you need to put things out there and keep the pressure high in the system so that people know it's hostile territory and it's better to pay up.
Well.. we are gonne bring that pressure again. "Crew! Get ready to leave in 5!"

Lots of people running over the decks towards the elevators to get into the ship. Everybody manning their positions. I love this shit! Hehe.

You can feel the tension in the air in the ship. Everybody sharp for some action. And action never is far away since I just got note that a Punisher class ship has been seen in the system. We start the localisation proces and it doesn't take us very long to get a match on the location.
"Engage!".. as we are in warp towards the location we are all getting ready into battlepositions. We are not expecting a tough fight really though. As we drop in on the location, we see the punisher sitting a bit off taking on a few rats.
We burn towards his position but he runs to the sisters station. We not gonna let this happen and follow him there to make him annoyed. When we approach him at the station he opens fire at us.
We return the fire but it takes us a while to get a good tight orbit on him since he is webbing us and doing quite a fine job on keeping us at a distance so that he can get us into armor a few times. I think his cap isn't really all that stable though since he looses control over the fight a few times and we use these chances to shred his ship to tiny pieces and have a good laugh when he stays behind there in his pod.



We pull ourselves out of there and see some activity in local.

this goes on for a bit.. dunno why he wanted to open a comms channel with us though.. no funs.. lets get on!

We just got information from our Hellhounds, Cyber will be joining us very soon now. And ahhh there he is.. so nice to see allied ships around in space. And funny since we see another allied ship in space commanded by Ga'len. We invite him to join our patrol formation and he does so. We form a strong 3 rifter pack. We will kick some serious ass with this formation. Mark my words;).

We fly around for a while. Have some chats over the comms and suddenly I have a match on a location on a Cat class ship that we are following around. I engage it at a belt and get it point and wait as my buddies drop in on the location also. I bet the commander of the Cat must be shitting his pants as he sees all the flashies drop in on him without us opening fire. But.. we are in for the action now though.. ahhh.. the action and the commander' corpse of course;).
"Okay!, free to engage peops!!"
We activate our weapon systems and take out the cat in a fraction of a second. The ship doesn't resist and we point the pod and take it out also. Back to the clonetube with you!

We have a few laughs on the comms with each other as we check out the loot and hang out at the belt a bit. we pull back into positions as we check our system stats.
During this we decide to try something out. It seems we have some miner peops in system and we gonna promote the area a bit.

[ 2010.03.26 23:29:22 ] Ga'len > wow
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:27 ] Ga'len > great ore in this system
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:29 ] eviwyn > man
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:31 ] eviwyn > sweet
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:37 ] eviwyn > a goldmine
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:41 ] Ga'len > i hear that belt I at planet III is awesome
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:47 ] Ga'len > and the rats never spawn there
[ 2010.03.26 23:29:49 ] Cyber Ten > yea so many rocks
[ 2010.03.26 23:30:13 ] eviwyn > gonna get my hauler before they are all gone
[ 2010.03.26 23:30:20 ] eviwyn > you guys start mining yet
[ 2010.03.26 23:30:41 ] Cyber Ten > yea got my retriever out here

So far nobody takes the bait though. But we see a visitor in system.. it's the Cat's commander that we took out earlier:O.. I am laughing to the guys how maybe he will return to his former position. And.. hahahahah.. he does so:D.
We engage him again at the same position. This time he is commanding a Tristan class ship. And this time he engages first one of us having him point as we drop in on the location. But he can't do anything really.. we take him out again and blow him back once more to the clonetube. Hihih.. we could keep doing this really;). "Please come again!", I bet he will take this too serious and will do this probably.. some people are too funny.



Cyber decides to try something out.

[ 2010.03.26 23:49:15 ] Cyber Ten > i'm under attack by rats in my retriever in belt 3-1, could anyone help me
[ 2010.03.26 23:50:24 ] Cyber Ten > pls
[ 2010.03.26 23:54:45 ] Cyber Ten > am almost dead
[ 2010.03.26 23:54:49 ] Cyber Ten > pls help

it doesn't really work at the moment but it seems something is gonna happen. We have spotted a Drake class ship in the system and it seems to be like a red flap on a bull for Cyber;). There also is some activity on the local comms channel.

[ 2010.03.27 00:00:02 ] Tylinn Rift > hows the mining here ?
[ 2010.03.27 00:00:26 ] Cyber Ten > pretty good apart from the darned rats
[ 2010.03.27 00:01:11 ] Tylinn Rift > any pirates come through lately ?
[ 2010.03.27 00:01:26 ] Cyber Ten > not really, pretty quiet here
[ 2010.03.27 00:01:59 ] Cyber Ten > just keep drones out just in case

We do some intel on the dude. Something that comes out of the intel and that makes us all go crazy is this -> 'Piracy is Crime', his corp name.. hehe.. man.. what the fuck he doing here. I could have a piece out of him. We start to suspect that it is him in the Drake also out of all the intel that is running in over the connected intel system computer systems of our 3 ships.
Cyber has pinpointed the drake on a belt where it went cloaky. He is gonna try something out and try to decloak it. He suspects it to be cloaked at 100km off from the belt. He asks us to keep scanning for the Drake to pop up and engage at his position when he shouts.

[ 2010.03.27 00:04:28 ] Cyber Ten > yea
[ 2010.03.27 00:04:38 ] Cyber Ten > drake in 3-1
[ 2010.03.27 00:04:40 ] Cyber Ten > 100km off
[ 2010.03.27 00:04:47 ] eviwyn > who is it?
[ 2010.03.27 00:04:50 ] Ga'len > claoked?
[ 2010.03.27 00:04:57 ] Cyber Ten > yes
[ 2010.03.27 00:05:01 ] Cyber Ten > gonna try and declaok
[ 2010.03.27 00:05:38 ] Cyber Ten > shout if he declaokes

Things go further from here.. don't have to write the story almost.. but.. I will:D hehehe. it gets better;)

[ 2010.03.27 00:06:15 ] eviwyn > decloacked
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:17 ] Ga'len > there
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:18 ] Cyber Ten > got him
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:24 ] eviwyn > who?
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:25 ] Cyber Ten > point
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:27 ] Cyber Ten > drake
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:29 ] Cyber Ten > warp in
[ 2010.03.27 00:06:32 ] eviwyn > omw

The 3 rifter pack drops in on the Drake's location and start engaging it in fast close tight orbit. We engage our weapon systems and talk tacticts as we engage the BC ship. We decide to make sure one keeps point and the other ships can hop out to recover and enage asap all the time. We will take out this ship!

[ 2010.03.27 00:07:13 ] Cyber Ten > warp out when needed
[ 2010.03.27 00:07:17 ] Cyber Ten > or does he have a point?
[ 2010.03.27 00:07:29 ] Ga'len > yes
[ 2010.03.27 00:07:33 ] Cyber Ten > damn
[ 2010.03.27 00:07:41 ] Cyber Ten > just try and get out of range if he hits to hard then
[ 2010.03.27 00:07:47 ] Ga'len > 9k point
[ 2010.03.27 00:08:12 ] eviwyn > you managing damage?
[ 2010.03.27 00:08:22 ] Ga'len > not really
[ 2010.03.27 00:08:24 ] Ga'len > we can't take him
[ 2010.03.27 00:08:32 ] Ga'len > got to warp out

It's tough.. but we are hardheaded and keep trying. We just wanna have a piece out of this dude!

[ 2010.03.27 00:08:34 ] Cyber Ten > repair and come back
[ 2010.03.27 00:08:38 ] Ga'len > k
[ 2010.03.27 00:08:44 ] Cyber Ten > i just wanna try

[ 2010.03.27 00:11:06 ] Ga'len > omw back
[ 2010.03.27 00:11:09 ] eviwyn > me too

We try to get into contact with the Tuskers guy in local.

[ 2010.03.27 00:10:09 ] Ga'len > Jaxley , drake in top belt
[ 2010.03.27 00:10:11 ] Ga'len > want to help?
[ 2010.03.27 00:10:39 ] Jaxley > can't see why not
[ 2010.03.27 00:10:45 ] eviwyn > great

So now we have a 3 rifter pack with reinforcements of a Puni class ship to take out the Drake. Nobody said it would be easy but we really want this:D..

[ 2010.03.27 00:11:16 ] Cyber Ten > i can't kepp point
[ 2010.03.27 00:11:32 ] eviwyn > jax already there?

[ 2010.03.27 00:15:32 ] Cyber Ten > overheat if u can
[ 2010.03.27 00:15:37 ] Cyber Ten > get him past peak

I get a note in on the comp sys from the lower decks armory.. not good news though.. we are almost out of Guristas Thorn Rockets and don't have any other rockets on board. We got some close in station though.

[ 2010.03.27 00:16:02 ] eviwyn > damn my last rockets
[ 2010.03.27 00:16:22 ] eviwyn > i got some in station here though
[ 2010.03.27 00:16:23 ] Ga'len > recovering
[ 2010.03.27 00:16:26 ] Cyber Ten > i jetisoned
[ 2010.03.27 00:16:33 ] Cyber Ten > get them from can

Cyber drops some rockets for me to pick up. We burn towards the container and my logistics crew gets ready for the pickup. This has to go fast since we need to keep putting DPS on the Drake. We make it short.. man I love my crew! The logistics people get the rockets to the armory asap and the rocket launcher is loaded again before it runs out of rockets almost even.

[ 2010.03.27 00:17:02 ] Cyber Ten > we got him
[ 2010.03.27 00:17:22 ] eviwyn > sweett
[ 2010.03.27 00:18:33 ] eviwyn > great job
[ 2010.03.27 00:18:48 ] Cyber Ten > scoop loot for those who want it

The Drake goes up in a sweet explosion as you see the 3 rifter pack burn around it's location. We all get on the pod as hungry wolves! We get it point and it's gone before we know it:D.. haha.. great job guys!! This was SWEEETTTTT. You can hear cheers comming from the decks and over the comms. Everybody is in a huge adrenaline rush now.
We get out some of the loot and recover from the fight.

It's nice to know that you can always count on other pirates.



Time has come to split up now. We all got different orders from now and will continue the patrol later on. o7 guys.. I watch the other rifters drop out of the formation and get to the needed positions for now. More to come soon!

Evi, OUT.
